HexCheck for Neovim - check for latest versions of a hex package inside your mix.exs directly from Neovim!

Hello everyone, today I created a simple Neovim plugin to check for new versions of packages used in the project, not sure if it is useful for other ppl, but it was something that I wanted for some time so HERE it is.

Let me know your thoughts :slight_smile:

Very nice, thanks for making this! I’ll try it.

Take a look at GitHub - saecki/crates.nvim: A neovim plugin that helps managing crates.io dependencies for some inspiration as well. I love using that Nvim plugin when working with Rust.

Added a new very cool feature (at least for me) :slight_smile:
Now when you are over a package in your mix.exs you can press gd to open that package docs!
Obviously you can configure that key!
